What is Wander Your Way?

Want to ditch the cookie cutter method of travel and travel to Europe YOUR way? Then welcome to the Wander Your Way podcast — a podcast about all things Europe travel hosted by me, Lynne Nieman. In this podcast I'll recommend off-the-main tourist track destinations in Europe so you can travel where others don't. I'll also offer up some practical tips for Europe travel. And I'll share some stories that I hope inspire you to travel to this incredibly rich, diverse and beautiful continent. Some shows I'll be flying solo and others I'll be chatting with guests who have some specific Europe knowledge to share. If you want to travel to Europe YOUR way, then this is the podcast for you! Hit that subscribe button and let your European adventure begin. And be sure to check out more at wanderyourway.com.
